museum to decide if each sentence is correct or incorrect. If it is correct, click on box A. If it is not
correct, click on box B.

An unusual Scottish museum


 
The small village of Arnol lies on the coastal side of the main road as it
makes its way down the north-west coast of Lewis in the Blackhouse
Museum, an unmissable visit for anyone waiting to understand the way
of life once common in this part of Scotland.
A blackhouse was a long narrow single-storey building, often sharing a
wall with neighbours. The walls were made from stones and earth. The
roof was based on a wooden frame, covered with plant material kept in
place by an old fishing net or by ropes attached to large rocks whose
weight held everything down.
The roof traditionally had no chimney, the smoke from the peat fire in
the central hearth simply finding its own way out as is could.
The floor of the living area of the blackhouse was usually stone. The
animals would be at one end of the house, and in that area there was
earth flooring. Part of the blackhouse was also used to store corn and
other products.
Perharps you think that the name “blackhouse” had something to do
with the almost windowless darkness in which people lived, or the
smoke. In fact it dates from the introduction of more modern housing at
the end of the 1800s. People called these new cottages “white houses”,
and the more traditional ones they started to replace were therefore
soon called blackhouses.
While the design of the blackhouses in Lewis may seem similar to the
5000-year-old homes on Orkney, another Scottish island, most are not
as old as people think. The blackhouse used as the museum was built as
recently as 1875. In 1960 there were still nine blackhouses in use in
Arnol; the blackhouses further along the coast, at Gearrannan, were last
used in 1974.
The building housing the museum still looks very similar to the
blackhouses when they were lived in, although it does not offer visitors
the experience of sharing a roof with the animals.
The Blackhouse Museum is run by Historic Scotland. Nearby, there is an
equally interesting “white house”, furnished as it was in the 1950s. Next
to the white house are the walls of another series of blackhouses and an
excellent Visitor Centre in another cottage. This provides background
information about the area and has a very helpful model of the
blackhouse. The Blackhouse Museum and the Visitor Centre are open all
year round but closed on Sundays.

 PART 3

The are five questions in this part. Read the text and questions below. For each question, click on
the correct letter A, B, C or D for your answer.
Fourteen-year-old Neil Atkins talks about working on a house-building project in
the United States.

I got involved in the house-building project through my Uncle Brian. We went to stay
with him in the United States for six weeks during the summer holiday. He was helping
out on the project and asked me to come along. At first I wasn’t interested. I was enjoying
watching lots of new channels on TV! But after a while I got bored and went along to see
what he was doing.  I realised that what he was doing was really great!

He was helping out for an organization that builds houses for people who can’t usually
afford them. Instead, the organization buys all the wood and bricks and things you need
to build a house. It lends the family the tools and hires some guys who know what they’re
doing. They also get people like my uncle, who aren’t builders but who just want to help
out in the community, to do the more simple building jobs. The family eventually pay all
the money back to the organization, but they can do this over many years, and it’s much
cheaper than buying a new house.

I helped out with moving dirt and preparing tea. It was a bit disappointing that I wasn’t
allowed to use the tools and do jobs like cutting wood and nailing things together. I
understand why they do it, but do design and technology at school so I know I could do
it right. Some people had no idea how to use a hammer correctly!  But if I go back next
year, I’ll be able to do it, because I’ll be fifteen then.

2. Which of the following is true about the building project?

o A.  No experienced builders were needed to build the house.

o B.  The organization will get all the money back from the owners.
o C.  The organization provides free homes for poor people.

o D.  The project was filmed and shown on television.

3. Neil was surprised that…

o A.  houses are so expensive in the USA.

o B.  his uncle had such good building skills.

o C.  he wasn’t allowed to cut wood.

o D.  some adults didn’t know how to use tools.

4. Neil could use the tools to cut wood and nail things together right because …

o A.  He was taught how to do it on the project.

o B.  His uncle showed him how to do it.

o C.  He has learnt how to do jobs from the builders.

o D.  He had learnt how to do it at school.

o B.  he is planning to study design and technology.
